Dave Gorbe is being recognized for his Excellence in Education.
Christopher Shaw-Reed, Dave's nominator, says, “The reason I chose Mr. Gorbe for this award is because of his caring, kindness, and just all-around ability to help students and staff alike.”
"They often times will be teaching me things about music that they enjoy, but then I get to share with them music that I’ve discovered over the years and be able to make that connection,” says Dave, “I want to make sure that the kids have a memorable time and enjoy it as much as I did when I was a kid.”
Dave from Waverly High School has received a $2,000 check from the Michigan Lottery.
